Local
available nuts (never found mention to,
"trail mix" in our research over the
years).

Cheese
(waxed covered, looks good and stays good for a
time).

Check the area leaving from and going to, for what
game meat was there. Made into jerky or cooked
well and packed in lard, stored in containers has
been around for centuries. We did this on a 1260
mile canoe trek and still ate some of the meat
after 28 days with no problems.

A
little research and a few trail runs will improve
the quality of the next outing.
